Agustin got the coffee bug from his father. From an early age, he was always close to coffee production, but as he grew up, he wanted to expand his horizons. He started his career in cattle but migrated to the US in search of better opportunities. In his time there, searching for alternatives, his wife reminded him that they had his father’s farm as inheritance and that they should grow coffee again. So they decided to move to the family farm and start their coffee journey. He is now the head of his farm, but passing down the knowledge to his eldest son, which from now and then takes charge of the farm, when Agustin is not around. 

We discovered Agustin’s farm thanks to Beneficio San Vicente and their Project Cabañas initiative, which started back in 2012. They are on the mission to organize a small group of producers (currently around 40) with excellent coffees, intending to highlight their quality and find better markets for them.
